Zucchini Spaghetti

This is a really fun way to serve zucchini. I did this when my garden was full of fresh squash but you can do it with what's in the store.
Ingredients
- 4 medium zucchini shopping list
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil shopping list
- 1 teaspoon unsalted butter shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste shopping list
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed shopping list
How to make it
- Cut the ends from each of the zucchini. Using a mandolin, set to the smallest julienne, julienne the zucchini using long strokes until you have squash strands that resemble "spaghetti". (Use only the outside, discard the seedy part). Heat the oil and butter in a saute pan, add the zucchini spaghetti, salt, pepper and dill weed. Quickly saute the zucchini until crisp tender (it will cook fast, in less then 5 minutes). Taste and adjust the seasonings; serve twirled onto the plate.
- Variation: Omit the dill, add some thyme and grated Parmesan.
- LindySez: If you don't have a mandolin, you can julienne the squash with a good sharp knife, or you can make the dish with thinly sliced zucchini - it'll still taste good, it just won't present as well.
